Ectopic origin of the right pulmonary artery (RPA) from the aorta is a rare congenital
anomaly typically found in infants. We report an adult female presenting with shortness
of breath diagnosed incidentally with ectopic RPA via computed tomography angiography.
This case underscores the need to consider rare congenital anomalies in adults presenting
with unexplained pulmonary symptoms.
